Abstract

An alternating copolymer consisting of achiral and chiral units emits remarkably efficient CPL on photo-excitation. The main-chain twist bias is enhanced by thermal annealing by the factor of 104 in the ground state. An anisotropy factor of the polymer in the excited state is greater by approximately an order of magnitude compared with that in the ground sate.
